Make homemade, crispy, chocolate peanut butter candy with this easy to prepare recipe.

1/2 cup butter

2 cups creamy peanut butter

3 cups Rice Krispies® cereal

16 oz. confectioner's sugar

12 oz. chocolate chips, either milk chocolate or semi-sweet

Preparation - Melt the butter in a large, heavy saucepan. Add the peanut butter and cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until smooth. Remove from heat and stir in the Rice Krispies® cereal and confectioner's sugar. Shape the mixture into 1" to 1-1/4" round balls. Melt the chocolate chips in a microwave oven or in a double boiler. Dip each peanut butter ball into the melted chocolate 3 times to form a generous chocolate coating. Let the chocolate harden completely before storing in a airtight container.
